Edit: In the time it took me to write this comment the internet slowed down This post has been edited by mono15591*: 25 Jul, 2009 - 12:56 PM

Have you had your ISP out to check out the connection speeds? You need to figure out if the problem is your computer, router, or ISP and then we'll begin troubleshooting from there.

Have you tried rebooting (power cycling) your modem/networking equipment? Without knowing the extent of how you are using your connection, it's a little troubling to share any options. If the connection to your modem is slow, your ISP will need to correct it (if power cycling doesn't fix it), however depending on what is going on after the modem, it's difficult to say.

Don't wanna go and buy a new one if it's a fixable problem This post has been edited by mono15591: 27 Jul, 2009 - 09:18 AM
